This Sunday we had a complex soup, cioppino, that would take up most of my attention. I did not want to have just a plain greens salad, but it needed to be simple. Fortunately, yesterday was Jan and my 33rd anniversary and I had made salmon wraps for dinner.
Karl’s Leftovers:
Salmon Salad with Raspberry Radish Slaw
I had half a cup of roasted salmon flakes and half a cup of radish slaw left. Making a reprise of the dressing I had used on the radishes was enough to lightly dress some mesulun. A quick, elegant, salad to go with a fish soup.
After Dinner Note: Another dish that would be Google approved—fish and mostly vegetables.

3. Pour the dressing over the salad and toss to coat.
